Shifting to a family-focused lens
Individual Approach
Focus on incarcerated person or person under community supervision
Family-focused Approach
Reinforces connections within social networkReminder that families have expertise in supporting each other
![Page 14: Lucas County Tasc Rit Training - June 2008](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554b60dfb4c905e9388b53db/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Why work with families?
Families are experts in their own lives
Family is a natural support system for early crisis intervention
Families provide motivation for their loved ones to comply with mandates
![Page 15: Lucas County Tasc Rit Training - June 2008](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554b60dfb4c905e9388b53db/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Families can improve reentry outcomes
Family contact during incarceration can result in improved behavior in prison and better parole outcomes. (Holt, 1972)
During 6 months of family case management at La Bodega de la Familia, arrests dropped 11% as compared to 21% among comparison group. 90% resolved medical-service needs and 80% resolved social-service needs. (Sullivan, 2002)

Supportive Inquiry
Imagine you go to sleep tonight and a miracle happens: the problem(s) that brought you to the facility are solved. When you wake up tomorrow, what will you notice first that tells you a miracle has happened and things are different?
![Page 26: Lucas County Tasc Rit Training - June 2008](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062219/554b60dfb4c905e9388b53db/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Follow up to Miracle Question

What will be the smallest sign that this [outcome] is happening? The first sign?
What will you be doing instead of the problem behavior?
What do you know about [yourself, family, past] that tells you this could happen for you?
